Message from the director, Dr. Misha Tumanov:

Join us in celebrating Mason Summer Piano Academy’s (MSPA) 10th anniversary with a wonderful evening of piano music, featuring MSPA faculty, alumni, and students! MSPA is a week-long comprehensive music experience for dedicated and passionate piano students. For 10 years, MSPA has been the highlight of many piano students’ summer—we have had over 200 students over the years join us for an inspiring week fully immersed in music. Now more than ever, we need your help in supporting these wonderful young pianists to ensure that we can keep our program accessible and inclusive while enhancing the quality of the MSPA experience year after year. 

The concert will be held at United Christian Parish in Reston, Virginia, and live-streamed via YouTube on the Mason Community Arts Academy channel. Admission is free, with a suggested donation of $20. All donations will go towards student scholarships for the Mason Summer Piano Academy, which will take place at George Mason University on June 23–27, 2025.
